Singing advice?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Question: Singing advice!?!!?!!?!!?!!?!!?!!?!!?
I am trying out for play, and it requires singing!. What can I do to fix my voice, I lost it Saturday, and tryouts are this coming Thursday! Are there any home remedies I can do, and if I get my voice back by Thursday, how can I work my voice to sing!? I have to sing "Sally's Song" from "The Nightmare Before Christmas"!.
If you have never heard it before, you can go to http://www!.projectplaylist!.com When you get there type in "Sally's Song"!. One of them should be by Fiona Apple, you can listen to that one, but it's not right!. Type in "Danny Elfman" and search through until you find it!. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!Www@Enter-QA@Com

Honey helps a lot!. You can put it in hot tea, but I know people who have kept actual bottles of honey in their dressing rooms and swallow some before they go onstage!. also, whatever you do, DON'T whisper!. It's actually really bad for your voice!. If you really have to talk, speak softly, but in your normal tone of voice!. also, warm up before the audition!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I don't know why people insist on drinking tea as some sort of cure!.
Your vocal chords are NOT in your esophagus which is were the food and liquid goes, there in the other pipe for christ sakes!. Tea never ever ever touches your vocal chords, if your throat is dry and you like tea fine, but don't expect drinking something will fix your vocal chords since food and liquid never touch your chords!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
